Over 125 Christmas Songs
in Esperanto

Revised Dec. 5, 2004

Most of these Advent, Christmas and Epiphany songs are in TTT-Himnaro Cigneta, the Esperanto online hymnal.
Esperanto web hymnal list of contents
Since I edit that hymnal, I'm reasonably well up on what's in it, but this is intended to be a comprehensive resource list, so if you know of an Esperanto Christmas carol that is available online but is not listed here, let me know the URL. Thanks!!
     This is a list of links in alphabetical order by original and/or English first lines. Where I'm not aware of an English version to cite, I've supplied a literal English translation of the Esperanto first line, in ("Quotation marks within parentheses"). A list of Esperanto Christmas carols by Esperanto first lines/titles is here, and a list of non-Christmas hymns (by English title/first lines) is here. If you can't find what you're looking for, email me and I'll try to find (or translate) it for you. May take a while, heck, it may never happen, but I'll try ;-)...
     Carols in my online hymnal generally have MIDI links following the texts; if you go to a song you're looking for and it's got unfamiliar music playing, scroll down; chances are the tune you're looking for has a MIDI link there after all.
     A very few Christmas songs that are not in Esperanto are listed, preceded by the symbol not in Esperanto. If you have a lead on an Esperanto version of any of these, you can assume I'd appreciate knowing about it.

Following English custom, I have ignored Esperanto "supersignojn" and other diacritical marks in alphabetizing;
hence, Ĉe l' Kristofest' precedes Child in the manger instead of following Creator of the stars of night,
and Sæle jolekveld precedes Sans Day Carol rather than following Susani

  (Note : In dulci jubilo is perhaps the best known "macaronic" carol; "macaroni" in this sense refers not to pasta, but to lyrics that shift back and forth between Latin and a vernacular language. Good Christian men, rejoice is J. M. Neale's de-macaronicized rewrite of In dulci jubilo; Good Christian friends, rejoice has of late gained currency as an inclusive-language alternative to Good Christian men, but be it noted that the medieval, macaronic original was already inclusive in its language; the "linguistic sexism" was a Victorian innovation of J. M. Neale's.)

tiny bust of Dr Zamenhof, creator of Esperanto, born Dec 15, 1859 : What are Zambankanzonoj?? — Dr. L. L. Zamenhof, the inventor of Esperanto, was born December 15, 1859. Esperanto societies and clubs frequently mark his birthday with a banquet or other special get-together. Because the date falls smack in the middle of Advent, and given so many Esperantists' propensity for song, in some circles a new musical genre has arisen, the "zambankanzono" (literally, Zam[enhof-]ban[quet-]chanson). A "zambankanzono" is a humorous song, irreverently honoring Dr. Zamenhof and/or making light-hearted fun of aspects of the Esperanto-movement subculture, sung to a tune associated with Christmas. In the foregoing list, I have used the tiny-bust-of-Zamenhof symbol (tiny bust of Dr Zamenhof, creator of Esperanto, born Dec 15, 1859) to indicate links to classic zambankanzonoj by DoKo Jordan, the University of California anthropologist who formalized the genre. A general list of Esperanto-movement songs (also suitable for Zamenhof's birthday) is here.

The general index to songs on my personal website is here.

The background music here is
Aus fremden Landen,
the tune to which Martin Luther originally wrote
Vom Himmel hoch.
